Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
As in dry condition in Kuwait, excessive sun exposure and its location on face suggest polymorphic light eruption caused by sun exposure.
You should use suncream lotion and protect yourself.
You should also apply steroid ointment.
You should also consult with dermatologist.
Thanks,
Dr. Mayank Bhargava
